Hi, Sage 10.2.alpha2 is out. The main change is the switch of python to ucs4. If you don't know what that is don't worry about it. It turned out to be much less painful than I anticipated, but I only build and doctested on Linux x86-64 and OSX 10.5, so the problems might still come out of the woodwork. Otherwise we made some progress, but the main package merge is still ahead for us. The ucs4 ticket as well as mhansen's combinat update still remain open in trac. If anybody would like to take a closer look at #1685 plese do so.
Tarball [198MB] is at http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/mabshoff/release-cycles-2.10/sage-2.10.alpha2.tar Cheers, Michael Known Problems: #1744: FLINT 1.05 "make check" failure on Linux/Itanium I had a single, non-reproducible doctest failure in sage/rings/qqbar.py on OSX 10.5. I reran that doctest about 10 times and couldn't reproduce it.

After a sage -ba testall passes on OSX 10.5 and Linux x86-64. When building alpha2 from scratch none of the above is needed. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://sage.scipy.org/sage/ and http://modular.math.washington.edu/sage/ -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
